The volume stresses the relevance of the intersectionality framework in welfare state analysis by examining overlapping inequalities within the shifting institutional boundaries and organisational processes across diverse welfare settings. The volume explores the strengths and challenges of theoretical and methodological approaches to intersectionality, addressing its spatial, temporal and comparative dimensions. It, therefore, adopts a critical and process-focused approach while recognising the agency of individuals as subjects of state policies. The contributions critically build the link between intersectionality and other theoretical frameworks and research paradigms, including Marxist social reproduction theory, critical race studies, Bourdieuan analysis of class, critical geography, childhood, queer, migration, and disability studies. The contributions provide insights into the institutional realms of health, education, social services, and care work and examine state practices of racial profiling and policing in distinct welfare states. Overall, the contributions illustrate the strengths of the intersectionality framework in empirical inquiries while providing critical reflections on its limitations. Readers across a diverse array of social science disciplines will find this book valuable.

This book shows the different ways in which migration matters in the context of global and local childhood and youth. Furthermore, it highlights that childhood, youth and migration as well as local and global perspectives need to be thought and analyzed together, to address the significant dimensions of social inequality in the context of growing up.Migration as a phenomenon is most often motivated by the search for a better life. Very often children and young people, migrating alone or together with their families, migrate to ameliorate their own or others’ living conditions and seize opportunities for realizing a good life. Today as well as in the past this search for a better life is very often triggered by socio-economic reasons, war or terrorism.Against the backdrop of the topic raised above the book deals with children and young people’s own perspective in countries of migration. It promotes the idea of connecting global and local issues of childhood and youth with a special focus on questions of education. It studies questions of global and local living and highlights living circumstances shaped by patterns of migration and mobility.

Erziehungsfragen ... - kaum ein Thema ist von so breitem Interesse und hat so vielfältige Bezüge wie Erziehung. Daran knüpft dieses interdisziplinäre Handbuch an. Autoren aus unterschiedlichen Disziplinen diskutieren die Bedeutung von Erziehung und Bildung für ihren Wissenschaftsbereich. Auf dem neuesten Stand der Forschung werden Phasen und Orte der Erziehung behandelt, zentrale Aspekte der Erziehung wie Emotionalität, Körperlichkeit oder Moral erläutert und die für Erziehung relevanten gesellschaftlichen Rahmenbedingungen beleuchtet.

Wie sehen Bedingungen des Aufwachsens und Bildungschancen von Kindern und Jugendlichen in muslimisch gepragten Kontexten aus? Theoretische Diskurse und empirische Befunde einer Tagung, die erstmals einen dezidiert internationalen und interdisziplinaren wissenschaftlichen Austausch ermoglicht hat, werden in diesem Band der Reihe 'Kinder, Kindheiten, Kindheitsforschung' vorgelegt. Die Bedeutung von Religion, Armut und Gewalt, Erziehung und Bildung in unterschiedlichen muslimisch gepragten Lebenswelten wird ebenso thematisiert wie auch verschiedene padagogische Institutionen, Generationenlagen und das Geschlechterverhaltnis in der Turkei, Agypten, Israel oder im Libanon, aber auch in postsowjetischen Staaten.
